I got back from a trip to Batangas last night. Vacation. Today, I'm having an extended vacation, cause you sure well know that you need a "vacation from a vacation" to recuperate and condition yourself that you're back to reality again. I've been cooked rare and I've got the tan to show. In fact, I think I'm still giving off heat from being under the sun too long. I'm looking forward to another trip this week, as i'm leaving for Davao over the long weekend. Vacation, yet again. And the good Lord knows that I'm gonna ba taking another "vacation from a vacation" upon my return.

Christmas is just around the corner.

If someone out there really loves me, I hope that person gets to read this entry and decides to give me this as an early Christmas present.

I'm currently drooling for the Battlestar Galactica Complete Series DVD. I haven't seen an episode of the show, but the geek in me is telling me that I'm going to like it. I can already feel it in my hands - 25 discs of sci-fi geekery!

C'mon, it will only set you back $279.98

But I'll be indebted to you for life!

My chef gave me hell today. For almost a week now, I've been assigned as one of the class leaders in the kitchen. One of my responsibilities is to make sure that the mise en place is in place (i'm being redundant - mise en place literally translates to "everything in its place" - hence, the redundancy). When you say mise en place, it involves having everything to do with cooking ready and available, from the ingredients down to the tools and utensils to be used. Today was just one of those days when everything you set out to do suddenly f*cks up for no reason whatsoever. That's behind me now. I just have one more kitchen day to go for the rest of the week, then I'm out.

I don't know why I'm reviving this blog again. A light switch came on in my head, and I suddenly remembered, "Hey, I had a blog, didn't I?". So after more than half a year of not posting, I once again find myself spilling my thoughts onto this online page, for everyone (who am I kidding, I'm probably the only one who remembers I had a blog to begin with) to see and scrutinize. This time, I'd like to see how far this "creative" spurt takes me. Speaking of creative spurts, I find it amusing that my creativity does come in spurts. I have about a few months of inspired bursts of sarcasm and wit, only to be followed by a long period of creative drought. I hope this new cycle lasts longer though, cause I do have a lot to say about many different things. Not just verbally though. I'm a lot more restrained when it comes to saying the words. But when it comes to writing them down, I almost always hold nothing back. I guess this is good enough for a first entry.
